The opportunity to cross-examine the cop telling such absurd lies in
court would be more than I could resist. I'm getting excited just
thinking about it. ;-)

Yeah, I guess. But in so doing you technically concede the cop is
right and you are in the wrong. At the very least a citizen should
bear the responsibility for keeping the authorities in check by going
to court and telling the truth. All that is required for evil to
prevail... etc.
